In the next chapter, Nate and Gary will battle Gengar. Will they avenge Calem and Izzy?


Chapter 9: Revenge In The Northern Desert

Nate, Gary, Oshawott, Tepig, Squirtle, and Eevee arrives at the Northern Desert. They saw a dark blue and black three-headed dragon flying towards a tall pinpoint mountain.

Nate: There's a Hydreigon.

He looks at the photo of the Pokemon they just saw.

Nate: I need that Pokemon so we can fight the Subspace Army. Oshawott and Tepig can't do it alone.

Oshawott and Tepig looks offended by his comment.

Nate: No offense to you two.

His Pokemon then smiles.

Gary: Well, let's go.

The gang made their way to the mountain, where they came across Digimon like the Tortomon and Sepikmon. Nate and Gary pulls out two Pokeballs each.

Nate: Galvantula, Escavalier, come on out!

Nate calls out a yellow tarantula Pokemon and a a gray knight-like insectoid Pokemon holding two lances.

Gary: Elekid, Scyther, come on out!

Gary calls out a yellow humanoid Pokemon with a plug-like head and black markings all over his body and a green praying mantis Pokemon. The Tortomon and Sepikmon uses Strong Carapace and Spirit Boomerangs on the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Galvantula uses Electro Ball, while Elekid uses Thunderbolt on the Sepikmon. Scyther and Escavalier uses X-Scissor to make their weapon-like arms glow with light blue energy and do x-shaped slashes on the Tortomon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to the next area, dodging some Chikurimon, until they stopped by a series of spikes on the ground.

Squirtle: Now how do we cross over the spikes?

Tepig: Galvantula should create a pathway with his webs.

Galvantula fires his webs to create a web bridge over the spikes. The gang crossed over the bridge and went to the next area, where they got ambushed by the Dokugumon and Tortomon. The Dokugumon fires their Poison Cobwebs at the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Tepig uses Flamethrower on the Dokugumon, while Oshawott and Squirtle uses Water Gun on the Tortomon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to the next area. They broke through a series of blocks that leads to a tunnel with an elevator. They used the elevator and it takes them up to a cliff, where they got attacked by tree Digimon with cherries on them.

Oshawott: What are those Digimon?

Gary: They are called Cherrymon. Watch out for there Cherry Bombs.

The Cherrymon uses Vine Attack to attack the gang with their vines, but they easily dodged their attacks. Scyther uses Fury Cutter to slash the Cherrymon, while Escavalier uses Twineedle to stab the Cherrymon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to the next area, where they encountered more Dokugumon and Harpymon. Elekid uses Thunder Punch to punch the Dokugumon with electricity, while Galvantula uses Electro Web to fire his electric webs at the Harpymon. They took out the Digimon and came across a series of platforms in a canyon.

Nate: Now how are we gonna cross over this canyon?

Gary: We jump over those platforms to cross over.

The gang jumps over to the platforms, which as soon as they landed, the platforms started sinking. They jumped over to other platforms, which also started sinking. They repeated the process, while also dodging the Chikurimon, until they reached the end of the canyon and entered a tunnel. The tunnel has a huge lake of lava and some more platforms.

Oshawott: Great! Now we have to cross over a lake of lava!

Eevee: At least there are more platforms to jump over.

The gang jumps over a series of more platforms over the lava lake and reaches the end, where they got attacked by the FlameWizardmon. There was also a series of fire pillars in the tunnel. The FlameWizardmon uses Fire Cloud on the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Oshawott and Squirtle uses Razor Shell and Aqua Tail on the FlameWizardmon, taking them out. Eevee saw a button on the ceiling and jumps over to press it, deactivating the flame pillars. The gang proceeds through the tunnel until they got ambushed by the Vilemon. The Vilemon uses Nightmare Shocker on the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Eevee uses Faint Attack, while Tepig uses Flame Charge on the Vilemon, taking them out. The gang jumps down the pit and proceeds through the next room, where they got ambushed by the Arcadiamon Rookie and candle Digimon called Candlemon.

Tepig: Great! More Digimon we have to fight!

Squirtle: At least they're the really weak ones.

The Arcadiamon uses Erase Sickles, while the Candlemon uses Lave Loogie to breathe fireballs at the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Scyther uses Air Slash on the Arcadiamon, while Elekid uses Thunderbolt on the Candlemon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to the next room, where they encountered some Trackballs and BigMamemon. The BigMamemon threw their Big Smirk Bombs at the gang, but they easily dodged their attacks. Galvantula and Escavalier uses Bug Buzz to generate red soundwaves on the BigMamemon, doing alot of damage to them. Oshawott and Tepig finishes the BigMamemon off by hitting the Trackballs to take them out. The gang proceeds to the next room with a big platform and two floating platforms, where they got ambushed by more Candlemon, FlameWizardmon, and Commandramon.

Nate: Oh come on! How many more Digimon are we gonna fight?

The Candlemon, FlameWizardmon, and Commandramon uses their usual attacks like Lava Loogie, Fire Cloud, and M16 Assassin, but the gang easily dodges their attacks. Oshawott uses Water Pulse on the Candlemon, Squirtle uses Bubblebeam on the FlameWizardmon, and Tepig uses Rollout on the Commandramon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to a huge room with a big platform with three floating platforms.

Gary: Hey look. Another platform. Maybe we can get on it and it'll move.

Nate: Or maybe if we do, we'll encounter more Digimon.

Eevee: Well, what other choice do we have?

The gang decides to get on the platform and it moves up. As you might have guessed, they got attacked by more Digimon like the Candlemon and Vilemon. The Candlemon and Vilemon did their usual attacks like Lave Loogie and Nightmare Shocker, but the gang still dodges their attack. Eevee uses Hidden Power on the Vilemon, while Oshawott uses Aqua Jet on the Candlemon. They took out the Digimon and proceed to the next room with an elevator. The elevator takes them up to the front of a temple inside the mountain.

Nate: What is this place?

Gary: It's called the Relic Castle.

Oshawott: Are you sure this is the right way?

Squirtle: We saw Hydreigon enter this way. This is definitely the right way.

?: Sorry, kids. But this is as far as you go!

The gang looks up to see Gengar leap down from the pillar towards them. They leapt away from him.

Gengar: So we meet again. This time, I won't let any of you escape.

Nate and Gary gasps. They knew Gengar. It was the same one who kidnapped Calem and Henry.

Nate: You! You're the one who kidnapped Calem, Chespin, and Froakie!

Nate and Gary rose to their feet.

Nate: You're gonna pay for what you've done!

Gary: The same goes for Henry and Terriermon!

Gengar: HA! You think of couple of kids like you with your little Pokemon could defeat me? I'll crush you both!

Oshawott, Tepig, Squirtle, Eevee, and Elekid starts glowing.

Oshawott: Oshawott Pokevolve to...DEWOTT!

Tepig: Tepig Pokevolve to...PIGNITE!

Squirtle: Squirtle Pokevolve to...WARTORTLE!

Squirtle has transformed into a dark blue turtle with wing-like ears.

Eevee: Eevee Pokevolve to...UMBREON!

Eevee has transformed into a black fox with yellow rings all over his body.

Elekid: Elekid Pokevolve to...ELECTABUZZ!

Elekid has transformed into a bigger humanoid Pokemon with antenna on his head. Dewott uses Fury Cutter, while Wartortle uses Aqua Tail on Gengar, both attacks doing some damage to him. Gengar then uses Payback to do double damage on Dewott and Wartortle. Pignite uses Heat Crash, while Umbreon uses Crunch to bite Gengar, both attacks doing more damage to him. Gengar then uses Dark Pulse on the both of them, doing some damage to them. Electabuzz uses Thunder, while Galvantula uses Bug Bite to bite Gengar, both attacks doing more damage to him. Gengar uses Shadow Punch to punch them with dark energy, doing some damage to them. Scyther uses Night Slash, while Escavalier uses Fury Cutter on Gengar, both attacks doing more damage to him. Gengar uses Shadow Ball on the both of them, doing some damage to them.

Nate: OK! This Pokemon is getting on my nerves!

Gary: Nate, we should finish him off quickly!

Nate: Right!

Wartortle uses Hydro Pump, while Umbreon uses Shadow Ball on Gengar, doing alot of damage to him.

Gary: That was for Henry and Terriermon!

Then Dewott uses Hydro Pump, while Pignite uses Flare Blitz on Gengar, doing alot more damage to him.

Nate: And that was for Calem, Chespin, and Froakie!

The last attack creates an explosion. Out of the cloud came a Gengar trophy. Dewott, Pignite, Wartortle, Umbreon, and Electabuzz reverts back to their normal stages.

Oshawott & Squirtle: We did it! We did it!

Oshawott and Squirtle dances around cheerfully. Nate and Gary did a high-five.

Gary: Way to go, Nate!

Nate: We made a great team!

But then Nate's smile vanishes as he remembers Calem. He looks around the place. No sign of him.

Nate: No. Gengar doesn't have Calem anymore.

Gary: Don't worry, Nate. We'll find him. But right now, we have to find that Pokemon, Hydreigon.

The gang turns to the cave.

Gary: Let's go inside.

Nate and Gary returns Escavalier, Galvantula, Elekid, and Scyther to their Pokeballs. They walked into the cave, leaving the Gengar trophy behind. Meanwhile, back at Team Rocket's Castle, Jessie, James, and Meowth were busy looking at the trophies they have stolen from Gengar. They had just finished dusting off the Calem trophy.

James: Man, for these guys to become trophies, they sure can get dusty.

Meowth: Now we need one more ding to do.

He pulls out a box with two badges with a R on them.

Jessie: Thanks, Meowth. Now we got work to do.

She takes the badges and starts putting them on the Calem and Davis trophies.

Jessie: A one and a two badges on the trophies...

And then she realizes she hasn't got one left for Sora and Biyomon.

Jessie: And we're all out.

She turns to James and Meowth.

Jessie: We're outta badges.

James: Then we have to give the one Meowth has on to them.

Jessie and James looks at the badge on Meowth.

Meowth: Wait! You're taking my badge?

Jessie: Well, it's the only one left.

Meowth:(Sighs)I see your point.

Meowth took off his badge and gave it to Jessie. She placed it on the Sora trophy.

Jessie: There. All done.

Then a rumble was heard above them.

James: What was that?

The roof fell on top of them, hitting them in the heads, making them dazed.

Meowth: Ahh, twinkle, twinkle, little stars.

They fell to the ground. The trophy forms of Sora, Calem, and Davis also fell to the ground as the rubble covers them. Mewtwo and his army of Psychic Pokemon leaps down from the roof.

Mewtwo: Search for the trophies!

As he looks around, he saw Sora and Biyomon out of the rubble. He dug their trophy out.

Mewtwo: Got them. Keep those Pokemon Trainers and Digidestined busy, while I take them to Myotismon.

He uses Shadow Ball to make a hole through the wall and goes through it. Under the rubble, the Calem and Davis trophies were laid on the ground and Team Rocket were turned into a trophy as well.


That's it for chapter 9. Uh-oh! It looks like Mewtwo has already gotten there in time. Next time, Ash and Tai's group will try to save Sora from Mewtwo, while Nate and Gary will explore the Relic Castle.
